Sage smiled over at the girl. He kept a hold of her hand gently and wrapped his arms around her, more than happy to cuddle up with her for a bit. He was done with work now, so laying around for a bit was kind of nice.

Aria woke up later and sat up in bed. She was really weak again, and she was hungry. The girl shifted around and her eyes widened. She jerked back up. "Sage? Sage!?" She yelled, trying to get his attention. Edited at May 4, 2023 11:34 AM by Brookfield Stables

Sage woke up and reached over to calm the girl down. "I'm right here," he told her, sitting up so he was in her vision. "What's wrong," he asked worriedly.

|
Aria went into panic mode. "Where's Caroline?!" She yelled, tears falling down her cheeks. The girl got up, very weak and tiredly. She flung the door open and ran down the hall looking everywhere.

Sage was rather startled when she ran out of the bed, though he soon scrambled after her. He caught up to her relitively easily, since she was sick and weak, and grabbed a hold of her, wrapping his arms around her tightly. "Shhh...Caroline's asleep in her bed," he promised. "She's alright. You're alright. I'm alright. Everything's alright," he babbled, just desperately trying to calm aria down.

Aria wrapped her arms around him tightly. "I-I though sh-she got taken." Aria cried. She quickly calmed herself down, and took deep breaths. The girl got control of herself and sighed with relief.

Sage sighed slightly and hugged the girl tightly, worried about her. If she was having nightmares, then he needed to make sure she was alright even when she was asleep. "No...everyone's alright," he promised. He wondered how he'd be able to take care of her...he had nightmares himself, and often needed help. How was he supposed to help her if he couldn't help himself?

Aria nodded slowly. "I need to rest." She hummed softly, heading back to their room. The girl sat by the huge windows and looked at the town. She saw the little cafe her and Sage went to. "Hey... Sage? I have a mission for you." She joked.

|
Sage hummed lightly and squeezed the girl lightly before releasing her. "Let's go back to the room," he hummed lightly, taking her hand and tugging her gently. He looked over at her and saluted with a goofy grin. "What's the mission, your majesty," he giggled, just playing around.

Aria laughed and flopped back on the pillows. "Can you go get me food from the cafe please?" She asked, looking at him thoughtfully. Her dark greenish blue eyes shimmered playfully. "You can also get a break from work, so it's a win-win." She joked.
